Gordon was blessed with a long and well lived life. He was surrounded by wonderful close friends and family. If you knew Gordon, he could talk a dog off of a Meat Truck and never met a stranger anywhere. He had a way of lighting up a room with all his stories and him playing the jokester.

Gordon was a man of unwavering faith in God. His love and trust in the Lord gave him strength and comfort his last and final days. With his Daughter and Son at his bedside and his favorite hymn playing, I come to the Garden Alone. Gordon then embraced the arms of the Lord taking his final breath.

As a devoted Christian, a good and faithful servant, he finished the race with a job well done.

He will be missed until we meet again.
